cept pays homage to an under- ground – literally and figura- tively -- taco shop that operated for more than 40 years within a hidden passage underneath the kitchens of Alcatraz. The taco shop had no known name, but was filled with the country’s most dangerous incarcerated individuals and served only tacos. Playing into this theme, Criminals and Tacos restau- rants will feature celebrity mug shots as wall décor, menu items named after judicial sentences and a “banned items” menu for its loyal customers. Customers will have the opportunity to take and socialize their own “mug shots.” “Criminals and Tacos was designed to revolutionize the fast-casual food industry and capitalize on what Madison Av- enue already knows: Mexican food is the future of the food industry, and the dominant food in Mexican cuisine is, and always will be, the taco,” said Schiff. “We’re thrilled to be opening our first restaurant on Easton Avenue in New Bruns- wick – a location that provides us with immediate and central access to our target customer base.” Criminals and Tacos’ first lo- cation at 103 Easton Ave. offers the business an ideal location within the heart of the Rutgers University student community. Schiff & Wesson, LLC plans to expand the franchise-able taco shop throughout college cities and towns across the country, beginning with those in New Jersey. “Andrew Schiff and his team came to me with a clear vision and a set of criteria for where the first Criminals and Tacos restaurant would need to be located,” said Winters. “This location in the heart of New Brunswick meets all of the out- lined requirements, with ideal access to the business’ target demographic in the immediate proximity to Rutgers, New Jer- sey’s largest university.” Chef Andrew Schiff is an imaginative trendsetter in the hospitality and culinary indus- try. He is known worldwide for creating both SPREAD (the product line) and SPREAD (the restaurant). His unique ability to reimagine food has made him the recipient of such accolades as the winner of “Best Bite of Food Anywhere in America,” “Best Thing I Ever Ate,” Oprah’s Favorite Thing for Christmas, The Silver Fork and a Mayoral Proclamation. n
